God forms his people through ordinary, grace-filled rhythms. Rather than treating spiritual habits as tools for self-improvement, we should see them as places where God meets us, pours out his grace, and patiently shapes who we are becoming. This week we see that we have the ear of the God of the universe—at any time we can go to him and speak to him in prayer. Life-giving prayer is honest & sincere, loving and God-centered, and expresses total dependence.
